Doggy Day Care in Harriston

“Dana took Tucker on really short notice, and was the absolute best to him! He came back extremely happy and fulfilled; we will definitely book with her again!”

“We truly appreciate Brandy! We booked very last minute with brandy. Being on vacation we brought our epileptic pup and he wasn’t coping well in a new place being alone. So we downloaded this app for the first time and booked with her while we went out. She responded when I checked on him, and sent me pictures of him while he was with her. We are even booked an extra day with her while we were here because he did so well in her care! Thank you Brandy !!”

Megan D.

“Jani & Paul were able to graciously accommodate my puppy for daycare on very short notice. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay and will most definitely be booking again. The best!!!”

“Hillary did a fantastic job watching our dog for the day. She is great at communicating and flexible. With our drop off and pickup times. We would definitely use her again. We really appreciate her letting us know details about his day.”

About: Just the 2 of us. Our sweet boy crossed over the rainbow bridge, and while we’re not quite ready to get another dog, we love making new paw friends! We both work from home, and have opposite schedules when leaving the house, so one of us is normally home! It’s a perfect set up for your pups ‘home away from home.’ We take at least 2 walks a day, plus dog parks and car rides! Dogs are free to roam around the house and fenced in yard.

“My senior dog was well looked after by Cory and his wife. I forgot to mention my boy's aversion to cats, which I didn't know they have. They were very gracious about my oversight and managed the situation well. Felt very comfortable leaving my boy with them.”

“Reyna is incredibly kind and is so considerate with my anxious pup! She does her best to help him adjust and offer him comfort, and he clearly feels so safe in her home! It’s a huge relief knowing he’s with her while I’m at work and he’s getting the attention he needs.”

Ames G.

“Madison is great. I would not hesitate to leave my pet in her care again. My Jaxson can be very nervous without his pet parents but she handled him like a pro and he did seem to enjoy his time with her.”

“Margaret was the perfect sitter for our little dog, Hattie. From the moment that we arrived to drop off Hattie, Margaret met us with a warm smile and put us right at ease that Hattie will be well taken care of. Margaret updated us with pictures over the afternoon, and when we came to pick up, Hattie was was in a great, happy mood. We have no complaints with the experience, and would gladly leave Hattie with Margaret again.”

About: Lifelong dog owner with decades of experience caring for dogs both big and small. I work from home and am able to provide constant care, companionship and plenty of exercise. I am happy to host dogs from different families if they are friendly, but I am also happy to host your dog(s) alone. Boarders or daycare get at least two to three 30+ min walks/day, dozens of photos, and lots of love of course! I provide toys, bowls, a dog bed, treats, poop bags and a backup leash. A tired dog is a good dog :) I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood. One of my rescues was a very sick 3-month old puppy that I raised, so I am well-versed with puppy care. I do not currently have pets living in the home, so your dogs will have the run of the place! I own my own home on a quiet circle street. My yard is an expansive quarter acre of grass with access to miles of mowed walking paths. I am happy to brush the dogs after these walks, if safe and allowed. When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. My six year old son is often present for a booking. He is a responsible child who has been taught to be respectful of dogs by giving them space and patience. We have firm rules that he will never climb, poke, tease or infringe on a dog’s personal space. If your booking request ends up being a time that he will be staying with me, then he enjoys participating in meet in greets to ensure everyone is a great fit :) we have yet to meet a dog we didn’t like! I provide treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like me to crate your dog. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets! I work from home, so I am flexible for drop-ins, last-minute needs, or regular walks, and can give your dog consistent companionship…and some fun of course! Rain or shine, I am happy to take them out. I provide a treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like to crate your dog! When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on “Welcome Walk” where we get acquainted in the great outdoors. This allows me to build our bond in neutral space with plenty of positive stimulation for the dogs.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs since birth and wouldn't have it any other way. I'm happy to care for your dog's general wellbeing, as well as to spoil them in your absence! I am a work-from-home High School teacher, so I am available 24/7 to spoil your dog! We have an invisible fence and an extra receiver for those who prefer their dog can run around. If you prefer, I can also leash your dog for backyard adventures. We love hiking and neighborhood walks, which I can schedule for your pet, per your preferences. I have 2 dogs, who can be separated from yours, as needed. I have .5 acres, surrounded by an invisible fence with an extra receiver, but can also leash your dog, if you prefer. Leashes are used on all walks and a doggie seat belt will be used in the event that we need to travel by car.

“Our little girl was super nervous when we dropped her off, but very content when we picked her up.”

“Nicole did a great job. I was confident in her abilities and she handled all the variations with the time changes like a champ. She gets a "highly recommended" from me.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for years. I have a small dog myself. Her name is Willow and she is 18. She is sincerely my very best friend. If given the option, I would be with dogs over people. They bring me so much joy and laughter. I only work a few hours a day and have a very flexible schedule so I will be able to meet your pets routine needs. I am very flexible on taking care of your pets. If they are not good with my dog, I have options not to have her with me.

“Great experience, my dog was well taken care of!”

“Jenesis was amazing! She made sure to take extra care of my pup and make her feel at ease while I was away. She was flexible with my late evening pick up time and even watched my dog longer than I had originally asked/needed her to. Please book with her if you need a sitter!!”

Josey T.

“Jo was really flexible with the times and helped me and my fiance have a great vacation. Thank you, Jo! They also updated me regularly on how my dog was doing, which is greatly appreciated. 10/10 experience, would have them watch my dog again!”

“This was the second time our dog Summer stayed with Brandy and she had a great time hanging out and going for walks with Brandy and her dog Bodhi. We have found our go-to doggy day care provider for our occasional trips to Massanutten! Thanks, Brandy!”
